Description
San Diego County has released a death certificate confirming skeletal remains found September 17 in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park are those of a former Navy SEAL from Morongo Valley.
The SEAL, John Fitzpatrick, 52, had been reported missing in July along with his companion, a 47-year-old Chinese national named Fang Jin.
The San Bernardino County coroner’s office previously confirmed Jin’s remains were found on October 28. Both remains were found near Harper Canyon. A San Diego County death certificate for Jin still has not been released.
The death certificate lists Fitzpatrick’s cause of death as “pending.” Both autopsies remain sealed because of an ongoing investigation.
